CLIMATE,

The climate of Idaho is one of its
chief attractions, with its varying
attitudes within few miles, almost
any desired temperature may be
had. In the valleys snow rarely
falls to any great depth and remains
usually but a very short time, while
on the other hand the high noun
tains are covered with eternal snow.
Idaho IS affected by the warm
currents supposed to be produced
by the great Japan current. That
mighty stream of warm water bears
directly against the Western shore
Of America.
The temperature of the winds
blowing over Idaho is of course
affected by its heat, and they carry
their modifying influence into the
country, and are known to us as
Chinook Winds" which often melt
off two feet of snow in a few hours
bringing midwinter at once into
beautiful spring.
Persons who have any predisposi
ton to consumption find this climate
favorable for It's eradication. Many
instances have occurred here, in fact
it is almost the general PRESUMPTION
that nine-tenths of the persons who
have sought this climate for benefits
from living troubles Gunless IN The
last stage] have been restored.

An Ola thief Caught.

Lust Saturday Andrew NayIor
who lives in Hardeman county, was
caught stealing some coffee from G.
FL. Ramsey Il Co., and was arrested
by the police after leaving the house.
The policeman searched him and
found pistol concealed on his Ter
son. He was carried before the Re-
corder, and as Mr.. Ramsey had re-
covered the stolen goods he had no
disposition to prosecute him, and
did not appear. He was fined $50
and cost for carrying a pistol, which
was paid, and he was released. This
fellow has been caught trying to steal
IN this city before. and is generally
known as a thief by the business
men. We understand he has been
married only a few weeks.

A VICIOUS BILL.

When the Interstate Commerce bill
was pending in Congress, THE HERALD
predicted that the people and not the
railroads would be the first to demand
the repeal of the law. The law has
been In operation just ten days, and
there is to-day general cutlery against
it,. not by the railway companies, but
by the business men of the country. In
our Geographic columns this morning
appear two dispatches sent from San
Francisco to the Commission at Wash
ington, asking for suspension of the
long and short haul clause of the bill,
and explaining that a strict enforce
ment of that section will prove disas-
trous to the commercial and industrial
interests OF the great Pacific State.
Already the Commission has suspended
the clause as regards the railroads run
ming into the south, and it will I'M
doubleday do so with respect to Cali
fornia. Immense industries have
been established and built up in
California by the cheap rates of trans
portation accorded by the railroads, and
those industries can be maintained only
by. low rates. Without markets for
their oranges, lemons, lines, grapes
and other fruits, vegetables and garden
products, the mild climate and prolific
soilof the Golden State might as we'll be
largely transferred to the moon
enough only being retained to accom-
modate the people living between the
Sierras and the ocean. A few of the
orchards and vineyards and gardens
will supply all of California. A market
for the vast product of the soil must he
found elsewhere, and this can only he
through liberal railroad rates. A strict
application of the law will cost Cali
fornia millions of dollars a year. and
deprive the people east of the State as
far as Chicago of cheap and wholesome
fruits and vegetables. Not only will the
law operate against that State. Init
against the country at large. The
liberal transportation rates across the
continent have diverted a large part
of the commerce of China and
Japan with the western world
from the Suez Canal route to this

every innocent man who is con-
victed. and fifty .convicts are too
lightly punished for every one
whose punishment is too severe.
There is entirely too much of this
maudlin sentimentality in behalf of
convicts; there is entirely too. much
sympathy for criminals in the hearts
of executives; there is eRtirely too
much pardoning of convicts, and
turning loose upon communities of
men whose place is behind bars. The
sympathy for the scoundrel, in most
instanG asserts itself from the
mon eriFof his arrest until he has been
freed from the responsibility and con:
sequence of his crime. The law com
pels certain degree of sympathy and
gives the accused twice the advantages
it confers on the accuser. There having
been fair trial, a proof of the guilt,
and an absense of malice and vindic-
tiveness in pronouncing sentence, the
instances are rare indeed where the
executive should step in to relieve the
convict and abuse and threaten the
public.
The pardoning power has sometimes
been exercised in this Territory most
recklessly and without any regard for
the rights of the people. Men have
been pardoned who have celebrated
their release by committing crimes, and
others who have received executive
clemency have returned to their old
lives of wickedness. Indeed, we believe
if facts could be arrived at, it would be
found that four out of five of the
many men who have been released from
the Penitentiary on pardons within the
past ten years, should have been re-
turned to their old quarters in
side of three months from the
time they were turned out. 1t
is no evidence of convict's
repentance and contrition for him to de-
clare that be has reformed and will live
better life. If his word were to be
taken, he would not be in prison at all,
for we don't remember to have ever
seen manln jail who would confess that
he was guilty of crime. Ask a convict
what he is "in" for, and he will dolely
reply, "for nothing"
Experience teaches that the pardon
ing power should be taken from the
hands of one man. and given to board.
which is less likely to be melted by pi::.
full tales which convicts are ever ready
to invent and tell.

THE PARDONING POWER.

There are now in the hands of Gov
ernor Gordon, of Georgia, more than
500 applications for pardons, and it is
probable that executive clenency will
be exercised in a good many of the
cases, if not In majority of them. It
has come to be the fashion of late years,
and especially in the South, for Gov
errors to use the pardoning power yery
literally. Governor Gordon says that
the laws and decisions under which the
prisoners are held are "barbarously
severe" and that it is disgrace to the
State that many of the petitioners are
confined in prison. Thus the Governor
calls in question the wisdom of the
legislators who enacted the laws, and
reflects on the ability, fairness and
integrity of the judges who interpret
the statutes. There is entirely too
much of this kind of ASSUMPTION
on the part of govern ors. The men who
make the laws are quite as likely as the
governors to know what the public re-
qulres for its protection against the
vicious and the criminal classes: and
co1rts and juries are not as rule, given
to Vindictiyeness, nor warped by pas
sion and prejudice. Now and then the
lew bears severely, and is more hard
than is necessary; occasionally the
prejudice or partisan hate of Judge
and jury asserts itself to the injury of
an individual on trial, but laws and
courts lean to the side of mercy rather
